They released three albums during the '90s, with their debut Electronic selling over a million copies worldwide. However, the follow-up Raise the Pressure, despite debuting in the UK Top 10, was a commercial flop by comparison. The group's highest charting singles is 1992's Disappointed, which reached #6 in the UK. The band's biggest American hit was 1989's Getting Away With It which reached #38 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Twisted Tenderness was released in 1999 and again hit the UK Top 10. This third and final studio album was co-produced by influential New York club DJ and dance producer Arthur Baker, with whom Sumner had previously worked on New Order's 1983 hit Confusion, amongst other songs. Marr and Sumner remained the only official members of the band, but were joined by Doves Jimi Goodwin on bass and Black Grape drummer Ged Lynch.
In September 2006 the duo's work was compiled on the album Get The Message - The Best Of Electronic.

The lyrics of Electronic's song For You can be interpreted as a metaphor for escapism and the search for freedom. The repetition of the line "Baby, if you look for me, you can find me in the jungle on top of trees" suggests that the singer is trying to escape something or someone and seeks refuge in a place where they feel free and unencumbered. The jungle represents a wild and untamed space where anything is possible, and the trees provide a vantage point where the singer can see everything from a different perspective.
Further, the repeated use of the word "baby" may indicate a sense of comfort and familiarity with the one being addressed. The singer may be addressing a lover, friend or an aspect of themselves as they search for a place where they can be free and true to themselves. The repetition of the phrase "if you look for me" suggests an invitation to accompany the singer on their journey to find freedom.

Baby, if you look for me
If you search for me, darling
You can find me in the jungle on top of trees
I will be up high, in the wilderness among the leaves.

One of the best songs I think I've ever heard. I love New Order and The Smiths but oh my sometimes I believe this track is better than a lot of their tracks. Just perfect.

This will always be one of those songs that gives me a “reminds you of the exact time of your life you were listening to it” feel.
